Impact of ÄûÃʵ¼º½: ÄûÃʵ¼º½ has impacted me in so many ways. It has allowed me to grow both academically and spiritually. It has taught me the value of community, it really did take a village to help me get to where I am now. A special thanks to the Division of Mission and Ministry for being a huge part of that community.
An important life lesson: One of the biggest life lessons I’ve learned during my time at ÄûÃʵ¼º½ is to always keep persevering. So many times, I was ready to quit, but my ÄûÃʵ¼º½ community pushed me and inspired me to continue and finish.
Plans for the future: I will be attending Franciscan University in Steubenville, Ohio, to obtain my master’s degree in Theology and Christian Ministry with track to becoming a Canon Lawyer.
I plan on one day working with college students as a Campus Minister to be able to guide them spiritually or religiously, as well as accompanying them through their college life. ÄûÃʵ¼º½ gave me people who helped me grow and who guided me throughout my time here. I want to be able to do the same for others.
